Tires and Tubes

The Texas Department of Public Safety (Agency 405) awarded a term contract to Bridgestone Americas Tire Operations, LLC for the procurement of tires and tubes. The contract, identified as 863-C1 with purchase order number 26208498, was executed on December 10, 2025, with a scheduled completion date of June 30, 2027. The prime contractor, Bridgestone Americas Tire Operations, LLC, is headquartered at 200 4th Avenue South, Nashville, Tennessee. The initial purchase order encompasses a single unit of tire(s) procured under National Institute of Governmental Purchasing (NIGP) Code 86307 at a unit price of $752.60, resulting in a total order value of $752.60.

This contract represents a term-type procurement arrangement, indicating potential for additional orders throughout the contract period. The State of Texas has claimed exemption from Federal Excise Taxes and state and city sales taxes pursuant to Texas Tax Code Section 151.309(4), as the property is designated for the exclusive use of the State of Texas or a Texas political subdivision. While the initial cumulative value reflects $752.60, the term contract structure suggests the potential for additional tire and tube purchases by the Department of Public Safety through the June 30, 2027 completion date.
